to kenyan elections. thank you for joining us this evening. what has been your overall impression today? was this vote free and fair? guest: well, you are asking me to protect the future, and i cannot do that. actually, our mission is a very comprehensive one. we have 130 observers, many of whom are still in the process of observing the counting of votes, the of votes. and it is very important. what i have seen today is that people got up at the crack of dawn to cast their votes. the research amounts of people that had to stand in line for hours and hours. the fact that they stayed and were patient, quietly waiting for their moment to vote, i think shows how dedicated people are in kenya to really express their will about the future of kenya, and how much they would like these elections to be credible and transparent. sarah: it is great to see so many people getting involved in this process, this democracy. even the irregularities of the past, what lessons would you say have been learned? do you think the

it's about $617 million for both elections. that's probably just on the lower side. this is an amount of money that a country like kenya cannot afford and it's such an important step in this country given what happened in 2007 and given what happened in august, it's an indication that election processes are a pivotal point or a pivotal part of the kenyan democracy. so a lot of people have seen that this is not a credible process. there are those people that generally feel that kenyatta has been elected president and deserves to be president of this state. it's a clear indication that kenyans need to start talking. >> katherine, i remember before this rerun election, there were members of the electrical commission that could not guarantee a fair and free election. now after the vote, you have that eelectoral commission saying it was fair and free. it sounds like it's double speak and the country is incredibly polarized, doesn't it? >> it is very polarized. everything that the chairman says is nitpicked by people. you have people on one side of the divide, the main opp

so there are questions as to why the election observers were so quick to give this election a clean bill of health, although we have had some responses from especially the carter organization saying they did give the election a clean bill of health up until the counting process, but they did note there were issues within the tallying process and they are glad that the supreme court has given such a ruling. anchor: given what you just said there, given the questions and the general sense of unease in the country, how realistic is a 60-daytime frame for the next vote? is kenya ready for that? reporter: it's a tall order. it never had such a situation in the entire multi party democracy that started in 1990. but now the question is funding, do we have enough money to run this election. the last election actually cost the country about $500 million. and this election will definitely cost more, because the electoral commission must now see through the process as well as you know, educating voters on what this election means and how's -- how it's going to be conducted and there are discussions
